"Lane’s player on our list for a couple years, and we’re very happy that he decided to come to the Oil Kings," said Edmonton general manager Randy Hansch said in a press release. "Lane’s a honest, hard-working two-way player that can produce some offensive numbers and competes any time he’s on the ice."

Prior to the signing, the Anchorage, AK native was committed to the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
